A good day and very
hot. The boys plowed
tobacco. Henry painted
a little. The roof
was so hot that he
could not do much.
My days work was a
busy one. I washed
dishes. Then got breakfast.
Then milked the cows. I
made some jellie. Parched
coffee. Washed dished. Killed
and dressed two chickens.
Fried them for dinner.
Baked bread and coffee.
Then had dinner and
washed dishes. Then
rested a while. Then
went and picked one
gallon of berrie. Picked over
and fixed them to make
preserves. Fed the chickens.
Then got supper and
washed dishes. Now I am
ready to go to bed.
